WhoDomLite (FreeWare)

NEW: Now we have support for .info AND .biz domain searches!

WhoDomLite is an advanced Whois domain name search Lookup script used to determine the status of a given domain name. V1.1.3 Now uses the Shared registry system and supports .com .net .org .info .biz .co.uk and .org.uk.

DEMO

You can demo this script here.

INSTALL

Installing WhoDomLite should be a painless task. Open the script [wholite.cgi] in a text editor (i.e. windows notepad.exe) and make sure the path to perl is correct. Depending on your web server it should be somthing like #!/usr/bin/perl or #!/usr/sbin/perl or #!/usr/local/bin/perl (ask your ISP if you are not sure)

Simply upload the single script [wholite.cgi] to any web space that supports Perl5 or greater (Ask your ISP). You must upload the script in plain text (ASCII) format!

You must then change the permissions of the script (UNIX only) to CHMOD 755. That is RWX_R-X_R-X. if you are not sure what this means then you can learn more at the cgi-resource index. If you are running on NT or Windows2000 then you can skip this bit.

To modify the appearance of the script you can place the header and footer of your HTML page within the script itself. To do this just paste within the relevant sections near the top of the script.

IMPORTANT: When pasting in your HTML you MUST comment out the @ symbol in any email addresses by using a backslash! e.g. joe\@bloggs.com

The following variables will alter the colours of the script output:

• $tableColour = '#CC0000';
  This changes the top and bottom table colour's.
• $tableTextColour = '#FFFFFF';
  This changes the title text in the whois table.
• $searchColour = '204,0,0';
  This changes the colour of the domain text box - certain browsers will ignore this! This variable requires standard RGB numbers.
• $buttonBgrnd = '#CC0000';
  This changes the background colour of the submit button - certain browsers will ignore this! This variable requires standard RGB numbers.
• $buttonText = '#FFFFFF';
  This changes the text colour of the submit button - certain browsers will ignore this!
• $show_COM = 'y'; $show_NET = 'y'; $show_ORG = 'y'; $show_COUK = 'y'; $show_ORGUK = 'y';
  These variables allow you to switch certain domains on or off - 'y' for on 'n' for off - simple.

Note: If you have any email addresses in your HTML you need to escape the @ symbol. e.g. if your email is user@your.dom then you will need to modify it to read user\@your.dom This will not change the way it reads in a browser. If you do not do this you will get the error message: 500 INTERNAL SERVER ERROR.

To execute the script you just locate the script in your web browser. e.g.
http://www.your.dom/cgi-bin/wholite.cgi
